Evangeline's POV

Kaia's lips had just parted, her voice trembling with something like truth, something that felt too close to secrets buried too long, when the front door creaked open.

I flinched slightly, not because I was startled, no, I had sensed the disturbance moments before but because I had hoped, selfishly, that Kaia would finally finish what she had started to say. The look in her eyes before the interruption was vacant, like a locked door behind, had been enough to warn me: whateve

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   He Takes Care Of Me

    Two days later.The quiet hum of the city outside my window had become a strange kind of lullaby. The storm of cameras and flashing headlines that had chased me the day I took my seat as chairwoman had slowly dulled into something less blinding, though still relentless. Every time I lifted my phone, my name was somewhere on the screen, trending, admired, envied, doubted.But here, in this office, there was only silence. A silence that belonged to me.I sat at the desk, the desk that had once belonged to Hunter, now mine its polished wood gleaming beneath the faint spill of afternoon sunlight. Papers lay scattered across it: proposals, contracts, half-read memos from restless board members still learning what it meant to have me at the helm.I traced the rim of my coffee cup with my finger, trying to focus on the lines of text in front of me. But my mind wandered. It wandered to Damien.Two days had passed since that evening since the bath, since the way his hands had found me in the

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Undermining her? no way!

    Evangeline's POV The corridors outside the boardroom were quiet, almost reverent, but I could feel the storm waiting beyond the polished mahogany doors. Every step I took echoed too loudly in my ears. My heels clicked on the marble, the sound precise and strong, but my heart thudded in a rhythm that betrayed me. I had been in this room before once, as a shadow to Damien, the man whose presence always seemed to command every corner of the space. But today, it wasn’t Damien they were waiting for. It was me. The new chairwoman. I pushed open the doors and entered. The boardroom stretched wide and severe long polished table, leather chairs, a wall of glass that overlooked the city skyline. And in those chairs sat men and women who had run this company long before my name was tied to it. Their gazes cut across the room the moment I stepped inside. Some were curious. Some openly resentful. A few, like Mrs. Patel, practically radiated disdain. I refused to flinch. I walked to the he

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   I Like It

    Evangeline's POVEvery step I took felt like an announcement—not just of my presence, but of my return. After weeks of whispers, speculations, and headlines that dissected me like a carcass for the vultures, here I was. Alive. Whole. Walking back into the company that bore my name now, not anyone else’s.The plaque at the entrance gleamed under the light:EvaHunter Rocks Ltd.The sight of it tugged something deep inside me. Pride, fear, responsibility, all tangled in one knot that sat heavily in my chest. This wasn’t just a building anymore. It wasn’t just my father’s legacy, or Damien’s name, or a dynasty passed down like an heirloom. It was mine. Mine to carry. Mine to defend.A receptionist stood, startled, then quickly composed herself. “Chairwoman Harts,” she greeted, her voice respectful but laced with awe.Chairwoman.The word wrapped itself around me, unfamiliar yet intoxicating.“Good morning,” I replied, forcing a calm I didn’t fully feel.Behind me, Damien’s presence was un

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Branding Me; Painful?Yes! But It's Sexy

    Evangeline's POVThe following dayThe alarm went off far too soon. I stared at the ceiling, the faint glow of morning brushing across it, and felt the familiar knot twist in my stomach. Today was the day. My return. My first step back into the company after everything, the abduction, the endless speculation, the questions that burned hotter than truth itself.I hadn’t left the house since Damien dragged me away from the storm of microphones and cameras two days ago. Those moments still rang in my ears: the shouts, the accusations, the piercing flashes that seemed to sear through my skin.“Miss Harts! Did he really save you?”“Mr. Hunter, are you two together?”“Evangeline, what are you hiding?”They wanted stories, not answers.And I—I wasn’t sure I had either to give.I swung my legs over the side of the bed and pressed my feet against the rug. My whole body felt heavy, like the weight of the world had found new ways to bury itself into my bones.The sound of the door clicking open

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Two days later

    Evangeline's POVThe surface of the water rippled faintly as I sank deeper into the tub, steam curling in soft threads around me. Two days had passed since the chaos outside the gates, since Damien had shielded me from flashing lights and poisonous questions. And still, the memory clung to me like the faint scent of smoke after a fire.I had barely left the quiet corners of the house since. The world outside hungered for pieces of me I wasn’t ready to give, twisting my name into something foreign, something scandalous. But in here, in this room filled with mist and silence—I could almost believe I was safe.Almost.I closed my eyes, letting my head rest against the porcelain edge, my hair damp and clinging to my skin. The water lapped at my collarbones, fragrant with the faint trace of lavender oil someone probably him had thought to set out for me. It was indulgent, almost too much.But I was learning something about Damien Hunter. He had a way of giving without asking, protecting wi

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Without Permission

    Damien's POV The headlights cut through the darkness as I turned into the long stretch leading toward the city. Civilization had a way of creeping up on you, first the distant glow, then the faint hum of traffic, then the flood of it all, sudden and inescapable.Evangeline had fallen silent again, her hand still resting lightly in mine on the console, as though she wasn’t ready to let go. That fragile contact kept me grounded, steadied the storm that churned beneath my skin.But the storm wasn’t over.The closer we got, the more unease built in my gut. My instincts had been sharpened by years of surviving ambushes, betrayals, and the kind of bloodshed that left its stain long after. And now, they screamed at me that danger wasn’t just in bullets.Sometimes it came dressed in microphones and camera flashes.As we rounded the last corner, my jaw clenched. They were already there dozens of them, press lined along the barricades in front of the gated drive. The night pulsed with their vo

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Remembrance

    This chapter has been corrected. Evangeline woke to sunlight spilling across her skin, warm and bright, too insistent to ignore. She rolled over with a low groan, instinctively reaching for the heat she knew should be beside her. Her hand found only cool sheets. Her eyes opened fully then, the go

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   The weight he carries

    Evangeline's POVThe penthouse was too quiet. Evangeline had been pacing for so long that the sound of her heels had become a dull echo in her head. She hated quiet now ever since Damien came back into her life, quiet meant distance. And distance between them always came with shadows.The storm out

  • Alpha CEO Desired Me After Divorce   Another beginning

    “Sins Don’t Sleep” "Have you still not found her? Damien’s voice cracked through the silence like a whip. It echoed off the glass walls of Draven’s penthouse low and controlled, but beneath it… something volatile etched. Draven didn’t look up right away. He stood by the tall window, half-turned,
